Description

Non-violence and kindness to living beings is kindness to oneself. For thereby one's own self is saved from various kinds of sins and resultant sufferings and can secure his own welfare.

We should be able to refuse to live if the price of living be the torture of sentient beings.

Let us pray that our food should not be colored with animal blood and human suffering.

Until we extend our circle of compassion to include every living creature we cannot enjoy 'World PEACE'.

'Thou shalt not kill' does not apply to murder of one's own kind only, but to all living beings and this commandment was inscribed in the human breast long before it was proclaimed from Sinai.

The highest religion is to rise to universal brother hood; and to consider all creatures your equals.

Sympathy for the lowest animals is one of the noblest virtues with which man is endowed.

Cruelty is the obvious cancer of modern civilization.

Anything that can feel pain should not be put to pain.

Which religion gives the greatest joy to God? That which inspires human beings to practice Ahimsa and compassion to all creatures.

Animals cannot speak, but can you and I not speak for them and represent them? Let us all feel their silent cry of agony and let us all help that cry to be heard in the world.

No nation is truly free until the animal; man's younger brother is free and happy.
